Nathalie Trafford was born in Chile and has spent her childhood in Spain. After graduating at the Lycée Français in Madrid, she settles in Paris to study Art History at the Sorbonne University. Simultaneously, she discovers the world of cinema working as an assistant in French and Spanish shootings. In 1996, she sets up Paraíso Production Diffusion in France. Nathalie Trafford conceives her production career as a way of building bridges among cultures and countries, looking for directors with a strong and personal approach to filmmaking. To date, she has produced nine features as delegate or co-producer—Léa by Bruno Rolland, El telón de azúcar by Camila Guzmán, and Machuca by Andres Wood, among others—and thirty shorts.
